Sang Tong Huts

Beautiful bamboo and wooden huts

What we say:

Sang Tong boasts a large range of beautiful bamboo and wood huts and houses located a short trip outside Mae Hong Son. Muk, the Shan woman who runs the place, is friendly and a very capable cook. If you order in advance, she'll prepare dinner with whatever ingredients are in season at the local market, three to four local specialty dishes for 160 baht. Anyone so inclined can join in the preparation or just watch. The star room is the massive 'Pentagon' bungalow that goes for 1,600 baht a night, and has a bathroom larger than most bungalows. Some of the other, more expensive rooms also have a selection of mod-cons. Each hut has a different design scheme, and a different price. Balconies are large, and look out over a teak forest and nearby farmlands. There is a newly built swimming pool which acts as the ultimate reward after a day in the heat.

Rustic charm

Were here in hot/dry season (April '05), and boy howdy hot it was indeed. Wish the pool had been done for our visit. Stunning view from TreeTop Hut, and very nicely furnished, but was overrun with ants, perhaps due to the weather? The place was somewhat of a ghost town during our stay, without any other lodgers, but we were very well looked after by Muk and her husband--multi-course dinners were absolutely amazing, and breakfasts hearty and healthy. Common areas could have used some attention, lots of clutter and dust, but was still very charming overall. Loved the friendly, attentive dogs. Must be amazing here in wet season.

Quite nice bungalows with unique design

We were pleasantly surprised with the Sang Tong Huts bungalows and splashed out for one of the more expensive ones. Each bungalow that we saw was different and the nicer ones were amongst the best we have seen in northern Thailand in this price range. The beds and linens were perfect, and the toilets were nicely tiled with attention to an almost European design. The toilets even had halogen lighting and not a fluorescent light fixture was to be found anywhere! Furnishings in the rooms were definitely a notch above anything else we saw in various bungalows in northern Thailand. And the food was excellent! Highly recommended if you want to spend a bit more for one of their upper-end bungalows.
